Summary: Boondocks 4 lyf
Comment: The movies came before estimated time and I had no defects in packaging or movies.

Summary: worth it just to hear Tom Dubois cuss !! :) LOL
Comment: I see quite a few reviews here stating that season 2 is not as good as season 1. I beg to differ, i feel that this series has gone on a more robust creative direction with this second season, in the aspect that more character development from the rest of the characters is seen with separate episodes dedicated to them and with a lesser emphasis on Huey.
I feel the momentum of the earlier season has not waned a bit and is seen solidly in season 2 as well with a lot more laughs and risque.
One must also understand that for a comic animated series, the true strength of the Boondocks series lies with the voice over actors and their talents for the characters they 'voice'.
That being said, there are a few points that i wish to make:
1. Regina King's voice-over on riley was faltering a bit on this season.
2. The frontal nudity of Grandad was a bit 'ugh' and imo, uneccessary.
3. Critique of stereo-type itself becomes a stereo-type and a cliche after awhile.
4. While the Katrina episode was funny and made a realistic point (selfish vs. lazy), i feel aaron was dancing on the edge with that one.
5. sometimes the dialogs themselves are a bit inaudible and incomprehensible (more so in context) and one has to rewind to listen.
These are just minute observations, this season like the earlier one is a Laugh Riot and a must have in your collection (just make sure its away from the kids!) :)
5 Stars: strongly recommend.

Summary: HI lair e us... I only wish there were more.
Comment: This show has no limits. I love the illustrators, they have an uncanny way of capturing a character. On top of that the story lines are so funny I had to stretch out HI lair e us. This is perfect if you are not easily offended by offbeat humor. I only wish there were more 'sodes.

Summary: The smartest show this side of South Park
Comment: I love this show. It's a breath of fresh air, and manages to make the viewer think as well as laugh. BET is a horrible blight on society, and this show is the only one to make the point. I have to give Aaron credit for taking shots at BET, mindless of the consequences. Great show. I hope it continues for many seasons, like South Park. A move to Comedy Central would seem to be a better place for the show.

Summary: Funny as ever
Comment: Loved the show the first season and there was no let down this season. I would have liked more original material however it was still as funny as ever.
